Ten months ago, Joe Moore promised us the world on a silver platter. He was going to stop the Iraq war. He was all over the boob tube claiming he knew how to fix the CTA. He was telling anyone who would listen that he would make sure everyone made a living wage.
He told all of us, "Crime was Down 49%."
He spent nearly a million dollars in campaign contributions to send you mailer, after mailer, after mailer, after mailer, reclaiming his greatness in solving all the worlds problems in slick looking, glossy, four color brochures. He bought TV time with those fancy (and expensive) TV commercials. He paid lot's and lot's of money - to a bunch of really slimy people - having them run around the neighborhood bad-mouthing his competition with claims of racism.
We've had three separate shootings just this week. This week we have five people hit with bullets - and one is dead. Not one of the shooters have been caught. In the last ten months, I've reported over a dozen shootings here on the 'Broken Heart'. We have our own little war going on in the 49th ward.
We haven't heard one single word or e-mail from our fearless leader and self-proclaimed world saviour, Joe Moore. Where's Joe Moore now? Where's our "Crime is Down" Report?

GOOD GOING CRAIG-
BUT IT GOT HIM ELECTED-----
Slimy people who helped Joe Moore.
$1 Million to win but only 100 turkeys for the poor donated by Safeway, not Joe. Some or many of the same 'poor' who were election judges who have 2-3 vehicles. So, how was it staged? Put name tags on the 'poor' for the floor show. How insulting, discriminating and humiliating. No discretion when it comes to camera time.
"Hey, look at my name tag that tells the media I'm poor. Mr. Joe is helping me."
At best he gave perhaps $500 to a little league softball team.
The building on Rogers has been mentioned repeatedly at CAPS meetings. Joe wouldn't know, Joe doesn't attend.
Perhaps he was at the BlackHawks game with his buddy Blago.
They both have perpetually confused looks on their faces. They both have egos the size of the Grand Canyon. They both know little beyond looking in the mirror and spouting off nonsense.
Yep, that gotta be the answer
For the last time Toni,
The turkey hand out was a good thing that help 100 needy families. You were not there so you cannot comment on the name tags. It was my understanding these were giving to each family to prevent people not on the list from sneaking in.
How do you know who was on the list and how many cars they drive? The list was provided by the Howard Area Community center NOT by Joe Moore.
If you are going to pretend you know something you really ought to do you research, you are beginning to sound like a crackpot.
IRISHPIRATE-
GIV EOE SOME CREDIT HE IS TOO SMART TO HOB NOB WITH BLAGO, PROBABLY BAD ENOUGH TO HAVE AN OFFICE NEXT DOOR TO JAN X CON-
OK Craig, what are last years crime stats at this time, 2005's crime stats for this time and 2004 's crime state - are you speaking out your ass or do you have PROOF? that crime is not down - since all you do is point out whats wrong in Rogers Park, and only show the crimes, what are the stats?
Well>
Where's JoMo? I saw him at the Home Depot in Evanston last week buying an X-mas tree. I though JoMo was against big box stores - or is that just for the Chicagoians who work at them?
